WILD ENDING | Belgium vs. Spain | FIBA Basketball
[Applause] It was a good pass. I think it was the correct pass. She was open. I mean, don’t forget Classins doesn’t play a lot and she’s only 20 years old. She’s playing in a Euro basket final.
Ginso on the baseline and the momentum. But those stats don’t tell the whole story with her. She has been about effort. Auso comes out with the big three. nine points. Messimon’s going to come into the game and another pass intercepted. Pouo and Spain are starting to get a grip, a vicelike grip on this game, getting easy points off turnovers. Their hands have been up on defense all game long and they are getting the reward. But that was a huge shot by Ouso.
Yeah. Coming in for Buenova who had to go out. Talk about big time players. And another bucket will take it to double digits. And you know the Spanish confidence is going to be soaring. And it goes bam. And that is it. 5949. These players believe they’re the best players on the court.
Yeah, they really do. And the is fouled by Fam. [Applause] takes the time, makes the first
Belo [Applause] thought about going all the way.
Auso bounce pass to Fam. gets it back to a USO. Puts it up and in. This is Spain’s game to win or lose right now. They’re up by 10. 413 remaining.
Yeah, I think Belgium they need to get a couple stops, a couple offensive looks, score, bring it in within six and then it’s anyone’s game. Pouo gets it back and makes the shot. But how how Puo Auso everyone another timeout. Look at this. Time and time again in this tournament we have seen different Spanish players step up and show how talented they really are
for Spain. And we just have not seen the execution that we’re used to seeing for Belgium. But we’ve also seen the Spanish defense create a lot of turnovers. Oh, nice play. And that gets it back to a 10-point game. Not much room for error right now for Belgium. 305 remaining. Their title hopes starting to evaporate. Quo Spain driving in and perhaps a new Spain rain is going to be upon us. [Applause] Lens a quick three gets it to go. The sense of urgency is [Applause] even on that play. That was almost a turnover. Nothing easy for Belgium right now [Applause] again. And this will put Emma Mean on the line. Of course, Mean 15 points, 10 rebounds. takes her time, makes both [Music] and back to a seven-point deficit, but under two minutes remaining here in winning time. Yeah, both coaches with a timeout.
And look at the look at Lkins. Unbelievable. Linskin, she’s deceptive, isn’t she? She doesn’t she is, but still Belgian have the pressure to score. Linskin seems to be carrying the weight of responsibility of putting the ball in the basket right now. They’re going to go through her again. And another foul. This on a backing up, stops the clock and gets to go to the free throw line. Got her hands around her. She’s not like wrapping her hands around her. She’s still kind of backing her up. So, you got a couple of different the free throw line. Oh, she only makes one of two. Does Messin get the rebound? We’re tied up and it’s possession error Belgium. Delar into Vanlow. Over to Alamon. [Applause] Alamon gets up a three. Got it. The Cats are back. It’s just a three-point game. And now the pressure. 112 run in the last 2 minutes and 20 seconds. I think I remember you saying a minute ago that
chances for Belgian are running out as the time was ticking off the clock.
Here’s Pam. Awa turns and gets it off too late. And look at Alamon. She has had a whale of a game.
Yeah. 17 points. They don’t have to. 15 seconds on the shot clock. Low has it. Gets it to Messi. Mesimon gets it in. Misses. They battle for the rebound. Fam comes up with in Spain. And boy, I would have put money on Mess making that. Ortiz has it. A shot here will make it very difficult for Belgium. Quo dribbles pass to the corner. Auso she’s been sensational and it’s Lindkens that comes down with it now. Vanlow quickly to Messi. Will Belgium look for a three potentially and no Alimon’s going to take the quick two with 17.2 seconds from 17.5 seconds remaining. And that’s a smart play.
I don’t Yeah, I don’t disagree with that layup at all. You know, there was no open three-point looks. Don’t take any more time off the clock, especially if you can get an easy two-point basket with a lot of time remaining. 17.5 seconds is an eternity at the end of a game.
But can they put pressure on Spain bringing the basketball up the court’s back in the game and now they’re going to get it to Kra. Remember, she made all those free throws. They’re playing keep away. Belgium are going to have to get the B. They turn it over. Unbelievable. Delar’s going to go in for the layup. Bel taking the lead. A turnover now. Spain. Timer’s running out. Ketta gets to midcourt. Double dribble. You cannot be serious. How in the world has this gotten away from Spain? A turnover. A scramble. A layup. And when all seems lost, the ball goes off the legend’s hands to Delar that goes in for the go-ahead score. In Spain, they had no timeouts left, so they have to get the ball inbounded quickly. They go to Ketta to decide which side he wants the ball on. Unbelievable. So, with 1.4 4 seconds remaining. Belgium appear to have snatched victory from the jaws of defeat.
That’s all they need to do.
With 6 seconds remaining. So with 0.9 seconds left here, you try to make the first and miss the second. I think without a doubt.
Oh, without a doubt.
Without a doubt. Go ahead. Hit the rim. Don’t forget Spain. They have no timeouts. It is not possible to catch a rebound. Shoot at the other side of the court. I mean, it’s would take something superhuman, but that’s what she does. She misses and she doesn’t get off. And Belgium in the most unlikely finishes of finishes have stolen victory at the end. That’s the only way you can say it. They avoid the upset by Italy in the semifinals. And now Spain in utter shock. They have not been able to close this out. And Belgium opportunistically make the plays when they have to at the end, capitalize on Spain’s mistakes and win 6765. They go back to back at the FIA women’s Euro basket.

Belgian brilliance!
This is a good example of a mental breakdown in sports. Nothing worse than when you do more damage to yourself than your opponent.🙄🤔
